Massachusetts Inclusive Concurrent Enrollment Initiative (MAICEI): Emerging Trends 2019

The Massachusetts Inclusive Concurrent Enrollment Initiative (MAICEI) is sponsoring a free one-day conference called Emerging Trends 2019. This conference highlights emerging and evidence-based practices that promotes college career readiness for students with disabilities.

Meg Grigal, Ph.D., Co-Director of Think College, will be delivering the keynote presentation called "Higher Education for Students with Intellectual Disability: Profiles of Effective Practice."

This study was an evaluation of the i3 Development grant, Think College Transition (TCT), an inclusive dual enrollment transition model to improve achievement and post-school outcomes for students with intellectual disabilities or autism (ID/A). The model offers an innovative approach to transition services for students with intellectual disabilities and autism by providing participation in inclusive academic and social environments of a college campus with same-aged peers rather than continuing to receive transition services in typical high school environments.
